Fast Forward Reverse
Pedestrian
I saw you last night
alone in your car
it wasn't quite right
your headlights were out
I woke up today
I had to find out
if all was OK
but your phone line was out
If you don't come quickly
If you don't come to
I'll be gone
I walked to the square
I called out your name
they said you were dead
and we were to blame
If you don't come quickly
If you don't come to
I'll be gone
I saw you today
alone in your room
it wasn't OK
your headlights were out
Golden Gate
Reach high Golden Gate
touch the clouds Golden Gate
drive up to the sky
Red arms breach the miles
bring me to the golden smiles
of my girl
see her smile
see her soar
Drive
so high
up to the sky
lala la la la la la la
Reach high Golden Gate
touch the clouds Golden Gate
drive up to the sky
Drive
so high
up to the sky
lala la la la la la la
Ticket to Wyoming
Bought a ticket to Wyoming
tossed another life away
Left, and a lotta things I didn't get to say
I know your daddy didn't like me
he said I wasn't up to any good
so I high-tailed it to Wyoming 'cause I could
'Cause out here the air is very clear
and the mornin' dew will see you through the day.
A sky so wide you can leave your past behind
and lose yourself, and even change your name.
Bought another ticket to Wyoming
That's sorta what this letter's all about.
Bought it hopin' you'd consider movin' out
And so, I'll meet you at the station
when your train rolls into town
just make sure that you're a-wearing
your wedding gown.
Sunshower
Roof top and I can't stop
the rhythm of the raindrops
that mingle with my tears.
Orange glow, the radio
reminds me you're not here, and I'm aware
and now I'm reminiscing
all the things we shared
staring at the leaves, talking to the trees
all of these, especially sunshowers.
Blue Jean is striking off
the checklists from the magizines
that clutter up her room.
"Can you spot the warning signs
of boredom letting itself in your life?"
Well, can you tell?
Is it something that I said or do I smell?
Maybe I can change
Maybe I'm insane
Baby, I just need a sweet...
I shuffle down the sidewalk in the afternoon
on Monday afternoon.
whistlin' while I walk away,
I look up to the sky and wonder why
the clouds have gathered seem to say goodbye.
Adios, my friend
Bon Voyage again
Arrivederci, everyone

Golden Girl
Speak to me, My Golden Girl
Float to me, My Golden Girl
Wait for me, under the stars
Float to me, under the stars
As a brand new moon
Speak me, My gentle one
Wait for me, My beautiful one
Under grateful eyes
Under the watchful, grateful eyes
Under the new moon
Under the new moon
But then,
you might like it better on your own
And then,
you might like it better on your own
Wait for me, My Golden Girl
Float to me, My Golden Girl
Under the grateful, watching eyes
Under these grateful, watching eyes
Under the new moon
As the new moon falls
But then,
you might like it better on your own
And then,
you might like it better on your own
Speak to me, My Golden Girl
Float to me, My Golden Girl
As the brand new moon
As the brand new moon
As the brand new moon
Can’t Let Go (Schelzel)
You know that I would,
If baby I could
You know that I would,
If baby I could
Let go
You know that I start,
But then I think twice
You know that I start,
But then I think twice
And I can’t let go
No, I can’t let go
Can’t let go
Take a Broken Heart
They say men are such fools
And a woman must forgive them
I know I was wrong, forgive me
Won't you give me one more chance?
Take a broken heart
Make a broken heart smile again
I'm in love with you
Say you love me too, and take my arms
Take my lips, take my tears away and love me
Come back to my arms
Believe me, if you leave me I will die
Take a broken heart
Make a broken heart smile again
I'm in love with you
Say you love me too, sweetheart
Come back to my arms
Believe me, if you leave me I will die
Take a broken heart
Make a broken heart smile again
I'm in love with you
Say you love me too, sweetheart
